- Abstract
- Growth in population, production, and income in the Southeastern U.S. is directly translated into growth in energy consumption. As a result, the environmental effects of fuel extraction, its conversion into other forms of energy, and the distribution and utilization of those forms has increased. Among the many dimensions of energy envivonmental linkages in the Southeast that must be explored is the relationship between electrical power production and the quantity and quality of the water resources. Presented here are two aspects of water use and energy. One is an overall view of energy consumption and the implications for water resource planning in the Southeast. The other specifically addresses the potential for the increased use of hydroelectric power at a small scale in North Carolina. Both present relevant information for the water resource planner.
